Teens In 100 Years

What will teens be in 100 years? Do they still remember what kids at the older days do after school? Run around the neighbourhood playing tag, or knock on the neighbour’s door just to “ajak” their friends to have a friendly football match? Oh, that’s just about the past. Now teens are using their phones as a hobby, 24/7.

Walking Dead, The Planet Of  The Apes, Ready Player One or Transformers?

TWD zombies.

We never know what future for us be like. We may be facing a Walking Dead future full of blasted cities and zombie pandemics. But if we manage to survive plagues, nuclear destruction, famine and environmental collapse, our social landscape might look like something ripped from the annual desert art festival Burning Man. You might say it’s crazy but you’ll never know. Scientist are developing new genesis, using animal/human body parts to fix a wound, weird transplants and even breeding hybrid animals. They kept on discovering new possibilities to make our lives better (or worse, ignore the fact about money matters). Imagine one day, like I said, imagine, what if suddenly one of the experiments went wrong and a deadly plague wiped out half of humanity? Teens might be struggling to survive in that torturing hell. Gaze of despairs staring at the hopeless world. It’s just one of the million possibilities, no one wanted this to happen, right?

Have you watched The Planet Of The Apes series? It’s about some highly intelligence apes (thanks to the scientist) that could use weapons and even ride a horse. They’re having a war with the humans because humans treated them like slaves and they are supposed to work for the humans. Things went wrong, so the apes started a revolution. Maybe in the next 100 years, teens will have pets that stand on two and talk to them like those sci-fi movies you’d watched (uh, Rocket Raccoon is a good example).  Imagine having a wolf (tiger? lion?) guarding your door, holding a AK47 and shoots whoever that tries to invade your house, sounds pretty cool and interesting. Imagine having a parrot that perch on your shoulder and accompany you whenever you go, talk to you and try to cheer you up when you’re feeling down, no bad, eh? Back to the point, what if animals are the ones that started a revolution us? I know it sounds dark and world shouldn’t have apocalypse but as I said, it’s just one of the million possibilities that will happen.

Who's tech is better?

Transparent screens that appear in the air where you can touch them, 3-D images that appear when you just flick the image out of your phone… Some cool gadgets in those sci-fi movies. Maybe in the next 100 years, we, teens, would carry just a thin layer on glass panel. It can literally do anything like what a phone do, and those awesome technological stuffs in Jurassic World, Iron Man, Star Trek… I didn’t doubt that would happen. It WILL happen, but probably not as “bombastic” as I mentioned. Holograms were already invented and that is the first step towards the advance technology era. Say good-bye to slide phones which I thought it was super cool until smartphones was invented. Teens will be carrying A.I. stuffs walking on the streets. Oh, why did I mention Ready Player One? It involves virtual reality. Maybe the next thing you know is, Teens have those black mask around their head as they started acting weirdly on streets.

Bumblebee is actually a Chevrolet Camero.

Transformers? I’m sure every of you know about this. Maybe in the next 100 years, us, teens, might have A.I. robots to keep us accompany and be our best friends. Sounds dull as you cannot compare a robot to a human. Recently, I saw a video about a BMW transforming into a robot and it was pretty viral in Youtube. The designers also plan to make more of these “transformers” in the future. Yeah, I bet you know what am I thinking. Teens will have a robot friend that follows them around like their bodyguards, or maybe could even turn into a car when they need it. Uh, isn’t that too unrealistic? I don’t know, as I always said, you never know what crazy/genius/idiot plans humans could think of. Maybe a few days later, you’ll be hearing someone invented an oven that could wash dishes and bake food.
